Measurement, reporting, and verification are vital steps in evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of a climate change adaptation efforts. Howe

This book illustrates the program of Logical-Informational Dynamics. Rational agents exploit the information available in the world in delicate ways, adopt a wide range of epistemic attitudes, and in that process, constantly change the world itself. Logical-Informational Dynamics is about logical systems putting such activities at center stage, focusing on the events by which we acquire informatio
Consumers increasingly demand that brand authenticity means that the brand's values are aligned with the corporation's actions, which are made transparent (Holt 2002). Interrogating Holt's claim that "consumer resistance" is inevitably staged in the marketplace, I suggest that the implications of seeing brand authenticity as linked to trust are related to how the consumer's role on the market is p
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common atria[ arrhythmia, has a complex aetiology and causes relevant morbidity and mortality due to different mechanisms, including but not limited to stroke, heart failure, and tachy- or bradyarrhythmia. Current therapeutic options (rate control, rhythm control, antithrombotic therapy, 'upstream therapy') only prevent a part of this burden of disease. New treat
BACKGROUND: The character higher order scales (self-directedness, cooperativeness, and self-transcendence) in the temperament and character inventory are important general measures of health and well-being [Mens Sana Monograph 11:16-24 (2013)]. Recent research has found suggestive evidence of common environmental influence on the development of these character traits during adolescence. The pres
Climate policy is a relatively young and dynamic area of public policy making. However, its development has attracted far more attention than the results it delivers in practice, which of course are the concern of policy evaluators. This article attempts to provide the first systematic cataloging of the emerging patterns of policy evaluation undertaken in different parts of the European Union. The
Den 11 januari 2007 blev Vietnam medlem i WTO. Ett krav för medlemskap i världshandelsorganisationen är antagande av TRIPS, ett multilateralt avtal vars syfte är att erbjuda effektivt och adekvat skydd för immateriella rättigheter, för att på så sätt minimera hindren för global handel och främja internationell konkurrens. Efter Vietnams inträde i WTO var förhoppningen att andelen piratkopierade vaOn January 11, 2007, Vietnam joined the WTO. A requirement for joining the WTO is the adoption of TRIPs, a multilateral agreement whose purpose is to provide effective and adequate protection for intellectual property rights, in order to minimize obstacles to international trade and promote global competition.

For these purposes it was assessed, which implications EMSs have for the competitiveness of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) within the first three years
